**Understanding 14-bit Binary Representation in Calculators**In this educational section, we explore how a specific calculator uses a 14-bit binary number to represent decimals. The structure is as follows:- **1 bit** for the sign of the number: This bit determines whether the number is positive or negative.- **8 bits** for the mantissa: These bits represent the significant digits of the number.- **5 bits** for the characteristic (exponent): This portion aligns the decimal point.### Example: Representing 0.0016756057739258To represent the decimal number 0.0016756057739258, the calculator utilizes the binary format described above. Although the exact binary conversion isn't shown in this image, understanding the bit allocation helps conceptualize how floating-point binary representation functions.### Diagram ExplanationThe diagram consists of 14 binary slots divided by two distinct pipes:- The first section, consisting of one slot, is for the sign bit.- The next section has eight slots for the mantissa.- The final section includes five slots for the characteristic.This setup visually demonstrates where each part of the binary number resides in the 14-bit structure.

Break the binary sequence 100001110101011010100 into groups of seven digits and write the word represented by the sequence.
The binary string 11001111101001 is a floating-point number expressed using the 14-bit simple model given in your text. What is its decimal equivalent? Note: in the 14-bit simple model, the left-most bit is the sign, followed by 5 bits for the exponent, followed by 8 bits for the mantissa (There are no implied bits). The exponent is in Excess 15 notation.
